But what will you keep in the pocket? Lovely boots btw... and dark brown won't get dirty so quickly

Tutter · 16/02/2007 18:18

here's my dilemma - i want to wear them this w/end

i could buy new ones online, wear the ones i bought today, then take the new ones back to the first shop when they arrive...?

atleast you can take your back ,I did this with a pair and they reduced them to half price after me wearing them for a week.I was sooooo pissed off.

Scootergirl · 16/02/2007 18:19

Stick sellotape on the soles and wear them v carefully... then take them back.
I'm not proud of knowing that

brimfull · 16/02/2007 18:19

won't the code be different because the colour is different

Tutter · 16/02/2007 18:22

You are a bad bad person posting a link to those [cross face]. They are gorg.

Mutters to self - Step away from the link - step away from the boots, you already have too many pairs of boots and only wear trainers.

Scootergirl - YOU ARE NOT MY FRIEND they are lovely though!!! I am buying a new house and really can't afford the frivolity of new boots

Perigrine · 16/02/2007 18:31

I have suddenly realised why I have always liked PB & OJ so much better than Tutter!!!!

Although it took a trip to America to understand that they stood for something

Tutter · 16/02/2007 18:33

me, sad and offended

LadyMacbeth · 16/02/2007 18:36

Buy them for half price, and keep both pairs

What a bargain. Would buy them for myself but I've already got some dark brown Lexiss Tims which are v similar (and I love them!)

Perigrine · 16/02/2007 18:46

Ahh dont take offence, you're cute - but but but - nah your an evil blue thing tempting my credit cards

Tutter · 16/02/2007 19:23

have ordered a second pair in tan, which i will return to the shop when they arrive (iykwim)

i like the dark brown ones, and they are tempting at £60, but particularly like tan boots

LadyTophamHatt · 16/02/2007 19:47

Very naughty of you posting that link
